EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Festival of the Federation, 14th July 1790" transports us back to a momentous day in French history. Created by Jean Alexis Cornu, this gouache on paper artwork captures the essence of a grand celebration that took place at Champ de Mars in Paris. The scene is alive with vibrant colors and bustling activity. Soldiers and troops stand tall, their uniforms proudly displaying their allegiance. The crowd gathers eagerly, filling every inch of space with anticipation. Spectators from all walks of life come together to commemorate an important event - the anniversary of Bastille Day. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we can almost feel the energy and excitement radiating from the painting. It serves as a testament to unity and national pride during a time when France was undergoing significant political changes. Cornu's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; each face in the crowd tells its own story. This commemorative piece not only captures a specific moment but also immortalizes an entire era filled with hope for a brighter future. Displayed at Musee du Temps in Besancon, France, this artwork has stood the test of time and continues to inspire awe today. It reminds us that celebrations have always played an essential role in human culture - bringing people together to honor shared values and achievements.
